Local File Inclusion (LFI)

The server extracts 'page' parameter from request http://10.10.10.11/index.php?page=login, and appends an extension such as '.php' before including it.

http://10.10.10.11/index.php?page=/etc/password tries without succes to open /etc/password.php.

On php version older than 5.3.4, adding a null byte at the end of our parameter will mean the end of the string, and leads to ignoring the extension '.php'.
